I am trying to trace my grandmother's family, her father was John Foster Ellis, his parents were Dorothy Foster and ??? Ellis. Dorothy Foster was a member of the Foster family of Black Dyke Mills and they lived in Queensbury. My grandmother had two brothers and a cousin named Frank Ellis who went to Toronto and I believe opened some large shop there. They returned back to this country and I am trying to find out anything I can about any relatives.
